I was working at a distributor back in the 80's when the Haz-Mat charge was dreamed up. We were told to explain that all of the employees had to be Haz-Mat trained in dealing with all of the gases as well as cylinder paint and valve maintenance. Once they started charging Haz-Mat, Then the delivery charges started. They said the delivery charge was needed to deliver hazardous materials like gases. Lots of extra revenue right there.
